Memory serving me, your 603 is naturally aspirated, so all of our numbers probably don't compare to yours. That said, my 87 300TD gets roughly what yours gets, which is considered rather low for that engine and that car. My 87 300D clears 30 consistently, with a leaky return hose. Marshall may have figures for NA 603s. The only NA 603 I ran across was in a five speed 124, and I am fairly certain those numbers will not compare well with yours :) K
